50 Best Sushi Bars in Nashville

“It was my first time eating Poke! I have to say, Beverly was amazing at walking me through all the different combinations and assured me that the salmon was great to eat raw. I went with yozu ponzu salmon. It was out of this world! I will definitely be coming back once I’m in town again. The garlic spam was also incredible. It was a bit pricy I think but otherwise everything was great.“

“Excellent quality sushi and Korean food with the option for tacos and burgers. Free and convenient parking lot (a rarity for Germantown)“

“Excellent Sushi, wonderful service. Fresh, they don't try to rush like some places would but don't keep you waiting when you do decide what you want. Also, the best tasting authentic japanese soy sauc“

“Sushi Bar is by far the best restaurant and experience not only in Nashville but in the country! Yes it is expensive but worth every penny! My husband Stan and I frequent there and it is truly our favorite place. Not only is the food exceptional but the ambiance and experience! The ladies when you check in, to Daniel, to all the chefs! We especially love Gage and Duncan!“

“Door dash,UberEats and Grubhub“

“The chicken Ramen and Nashvegas Sushi Roll was everything I needed. The sushi roll friend then topped with spicy crab 10/10“

“Asahi Sushi & Thai Cuisine was amazing! 🍣🍜
The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented — every bite tasted authentic and perfectly balanced. The sushi rolls were top-notch, and the Thai dishes had just the right amount of spice.

The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience feel personal and warm. You can tell they truly care about their customers and take pride in their food.

Definitely one of the best local spots — highly recommend if you’re craving delicious sushi or Thai food in a cozy, inviting atmosphere!“

“Very enjoyable evening and experience. The wasabi martini was amazing. The spring rolls were phenomenal. The chocolate mousse dessert was amazing. Highly recommended. Well worth the cost.“

“I've drove by many times by and i never see it open, up until now. Perhaps I've been in many places here in Nashville to express my humble opinion but I must say, this is the best and authentic Japanese place I've eaten! May not look fancy and/or out of date but I can assure that the food isn't! Stop by, you would like it I'm sure of it.
When we got there, we saw a few tables with empty plates, this speaks louder that words honestly lol“

“Went there with wife and kids yesterday (11/2/25) and we loved it. It was my wife's birthday and we wanted something different. It did not disappoint! Food was great, service was flawless, price was acceptable.“

“Hands down the best sushi in town. The owner is amazing and always greets me by name when I walk in. She truly makes it feel like home. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. If you have not tried it yet, you are missing out.“

“Loved it so much we went every day for a week. Food was great, service great. Would continue to go every day but needed to go back home to Baltimore. Love it love it love it Great experience service was the best and we are world travelers.“

“I went here today and got the crab lovers roll and some green tea. the food was excellent and very fresh and the owners were super nice! I absolutely recommend Sushi Circle.“

“Rock N Roll Sushi in Donelson is amazing! The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented every time. The staff is super friendly and the vibe is fun and relaxed. Easily one of my favorite spots for sushi — highly recommend!“

“Their kfc chicken wings are fantastic !! we live in AL and we drove 3 hours to TN to get here, sooo worth it!! The staff are always so Nice and welcoming. 5 stars all day“

“Quick and profesional service. Clean place. Rather quiet patrons. Lots of choices of sushi. Pretty good quality. Generous portion (and also of ginger and wasabi). We ordered Kim roll, spider roll, and twang roll (the best because of the sweet mango).“

“Food was delicious and presented well. The sushi took a little long to receive, but the taste made up for it.“

“Oh my gosh. The best sushi I’ve had in Nashville!! And the Chicken Fried Rice….I mean, it will be my go-to comfort food from now on. The Peruvian sushi with the ceviche was my fave, followed closely by the Blink 182. Go. Go now. Why are you still reading this? GO!“

“Honestly, Good little sushi restaurant.
I don't really think rock n roll when I think sushi, but it was a pretty good experience overall.
Prices were reasonable, food tasted good and were good portions, not too busy, service was great, drinks were great. They even had glutton free soy sauce. I also liked the fact that you can still find nearby street parking around this part of town that isn't going to cost you money.

Overall, it was a good experience.“

“Absolutely LOVE their sushi!! Recommend #9 and the San Francisco Rolls!! Delicious 😋 10 Stars“

“This is the only sushi store in the food hall, located right next to the passageway doors. They have over 30 different types of sushi rolls. Some small dishes, sashimi, desserts and drinks are also available in the menu. Prices range from $8 to $20. They are one of the rare stores that actually has seats all around it. Looks pretty cool to get the view of the kitchen from the seats.

I waited about 5 minutes in the line to put in my order. They use phone numbers to notify customers when order is ready for pick up. Very convenient as visitors can go around while their rolls are getting ready. My order took about 20 minutes to be ready. While I was waiting, I saw other orders coming out, the sushi and snack items looked really nice. The staff members were working super hard in the kitchen to get the huge numbers of orders completed as quickly as possible.

I got the eel sushi roll. It came with 10 pieces. The taste of the eel and rice was decent. The sauce was really good. They also have a lot of ginger and good quantity of wasabi. Overall it was a decent meal, but I wish the wait time wasn’t this long.“

“Excellent meal served by Dakota! Everything was great, served perfectly as ordered, prompt and professionally. We traveled in from Louisville with our only objective to eat at Jeff Ruby's and it did not disappoint. Highly recommended! Thanks again Dakota for a wonderful meal!“

“I love this place. I’m a local and usually when I go to an event downtown we eat here. The 2-6 specials definitely are a winner.“

“surprisingly good airport food? I got the hot bowl with shrimp and mixed veggies and I got my order within 5 mins, didn’t have to wait 30 mins in the chick fil a line or 20+ mins to get my food like at pharmacy or some of the Nashville faves in the airport. I was skeptical but honestly very flavorful and the staff was great during peak dinner hours“

“Delish! Highly recommend!“

“The service is great.The food is eehh.The prices are way over priced and I can’t say it was worth it. They didn’t wow me for what we paid. It wasn’t bad. Just not good.The salmon was way over cooked and too salty.The lettuce wraps were also a bit over priced.It is just a bit too much for us. We are used to resort prices. But wow.Drinks were good! It is really loud in here as well especially at night with people walking around everywhere.“

“Beautiful presentation of food and kind staff!“

“The ratio of food and rice is perfect imo. I ended up with no leftovers by just getting an entree. The food is cooked very well. Loved the Basil Stir Fry with Tofu. Great place for everyone including vegetarians. The Thai Coffee is sweet. My friends liked the red curry and the fried rice so I would recommend.“

“Good food and always consistant.“

“Hands down the best sushi in town. The owner is amazing and always greets me by name when I walk in. She truly makes it feel like home. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. If you have not tried it yet, you are missing out.“

“First trimester has me limited on food. Last night I was feeling so awful. Nothing heavy sounded good. Looked up places near us & they came up. It was 10/10 what my belly needed. The sticky rice was amazing , the miso soup was SO good. Got sushi too & didn't get a chance to eat it but excited for it today. Also, appreciate their side options. My kiddo wouldn't eat a full meal but the side option allowed us to get her something she actually would. 10/10 will eat again when in the area! Also appreciated the to go option & the wait time wasn't bad.“

“Old school japanese restaurant. 👍👍“

“With the amazing Sushi Kingdom across the street, I wasn't expecting this restaurant to be as good, but it was actually better! I love Sushi Kingdom for the all-you-can-eat aspect, but when I don't want that much food I come here. The sushi is better at Arigato Sayonara and so are the appetizers and hibachi. The prices are reasonable and the staff is so nice! Even something so simple as miso soup was done to perfection.“

“This place is absolutely amazing and such kid friendly. I loved the food it was so good, and this is the first time my little Timmy actually ate international food I was so stoked. The service was amazing my server was Miki, I also think she is the owner, she was just amazing and so nice to me and my family. Also, this place was really clean. I give this place my full recommendation. 20/10“

“They just changed their name last month but the waitress ensured my the food was the same, kitchen and cooks were the same, they just changed their name and increased their menu to included more Japanese style food.
Peanut sauce is my favorite!! I get it every time I come into town.“

“Friendly staff, beautiful restaurant, and probably the best foods I’ve ever had! I highly recommend this place“

“I can’t say enough about our dining experience! This restaurant is on my TOP list here in Nashville and I will now frequent. Everything from start to finish was superb! Our waiter Sid was nothing g more than AMAZING and the manager was very nice and came by to say hello! The FOOOOOD was SO good it’s definitely worth it!!“

“From the moment we stepped off the elevator, our experience at the Skye Lounge was nothing short of amazing. We were warmly welcomed by Hope, who made us feel right at home. Thanks to our reservation, we were seated quickly at a perfect table with breathtaking views — truly top-notch!

The ambiance was elegant and relaxing, and the service was impeccable from start to finish. Every detail, from the atmosphere to the attentive staff, made this dining experience one to remember. If you’re looking for a spot with stunning views, exceptional service, and a truly elevated experience, the Skye Lounge is it. Highly recommended!“

“This fried chicken we got was next level DELICIOUS, from the breading, to the chicken seasoning, and that special sauce it came with. Yum!!! Highly recommended! The portion is large and priced reasonably. We found this place online and was skeptical at first since it’s not a traditional set up restaurant, turned out to be such a hidden gem! You can find many different restaurants in this food hall. We can’t wait to come back and try more food soon“

“7pm on a Saturday night, not busy but slow service. The goyza tasted "fishy" (do they put seaweed in the goyza here? That seems strange if they do), the sushi was ok but was unevenly cut leading to some comically large bites. The ramen comes with a fried egg, which just doesn't hit as well as a marinated ramen egg and the katsu pork I'm pretty sure what just a sysco pre-breaded pork chop which wasn't especially tender or flavorful. I have had better experiences here in the past but it fell way short of the mark this time. Also they seem to have some strange obsession with putting asparagus in almost everything, so if you love asparagus this may be your jam but I don't find it works great in sushi rolls.“

“The crab fried rice is the absolute best and more importantly, Trever, the manager has the best customer service skills! Absolutely love this place!“

“Yesterday we had a fabulous dinner at KOI SUSHI THAI, EAST in Nashville….. it was wonderful! We started with Squid Salad and Gyoza then ate our way through totally yummy Crab Bang, YumYum, Eel Nigiri, White Tuna, & Sweet Shrimp… crunchy and delicious! Then we topped it off with Mochi ice cream! Every bite was better than we’ve had in a long time on the road! We had a “Trainee” server…and the rest of their friendly staff helped her provide superior attention! So glad we found KOI SHSHI THAI early in our stay herein Nashville! We’ll be back!“

“There are so many people who work in the food industry that hate their job and they let you know with how they communicate. Charles at Eastern Peak is the opposite. He loves his job and it shows in his service and care. So refreshing. Thanks Charles!“

“Food here is amazing and I love the coupon they have on the back of my local Kroger Register tapes. Great to save money now I can go more often. Thank you“

“Great Thai place!! Owners are super friendly and everything Ive tried has been fantastic.“

“Best Philly roll anywhere. Always big and tight not falling apart like other places nearby. I refuse to go anywhere else for cali rolls as well!“

“Take review with a grain of salt since I've only been once and it was for a to-go lunch, but wow, the hot and sour soup is so delicious and just full of fresh vegetables! Best hot and sour soup I've maybe ever had. The string beans were freshly sauteed and the cabbage was perfect! The restaurant itself was so nice and clean, and the cashier and hostesses were kind. Will definitely be going back! They also have a few little Lego sets decorating the cashier stand and they were all Lego sets I've been dying to build, it was cool to see them in person and built!“

“The Hibachi Grill was really fun! Our grill master was very entertaining! The fillet and chicken was cooked to perfection! Our server was great! I'm rating my first time 5 stars!“

“Incredible food, the Pho is the best and the sushi is really good also. Great food.“

“Amazing food and great service.“
